Montreal Osteoporosis & Fracture Prevention with Calcium and Vitamin D

June 25, 2019

Fractures are disruptive. Fractures hurt. Fractures keep you from doing what you want to do. Fractures are pricey in terms of time, money and suffering. How can osteoporotic fractures be averted? Calcium and vitamin D supplementation for those who have osteoporosis. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic cares for many Montreal osteoporotic patients and endorses preventive measures like nutritional taking supplements to deter osteoporotic fractures and keep our Montreal chiropractic patients strong and in good shape.

SUPPLEMENTATION SAVES SUFFERING AND MONEY FOR FRACTURES

Your Montreal chiropractor is quite aware that supplementing with calcium and vitamin D feeds the bones and helps them be strong. This feeding and strengthening ideally should start in the teen years, but supplementing at any age is of value. A new study of osteoporosis patients in the European Union and the United States lists a some amazing facts:

(A) more than 500,000 fractures a year in the European Union and 300,000 in the United States could be prevented if every osteoporotic adult in the EU and US used calcium and vitamin D and

(B) lots of money could be saved: €5.7 billion in the EU and $3.3 billion in the US. (1)

Those are some enormous numbers! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic surely encourages support of this effort to save money and, more importantly, suffering by supplementing with calcium and vitamin D3.

THE PROPER TYPE OF SUPPLEMENT IS KEY

Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is quite certain that if you are making the effort to supplement with calcium and vitamin D, you want it to be effective. You want the nutrients to be absorbed as much as possible. That’s where the form of vitamin D you choose is important. Attaining and maintaining proper levels of vitamin D is also key for bone and general health. This is a problem for people around the world. Why? Absorption. Absorption may be hindered in conditions like obesity in which nutrients get stuck in the adipose tissue, in diseases that are recognized for reduced intestinal absorption, and with some neurological diseases that need special drugs that prompt the person’s system to not synthesize the calcifediol effectively. The recommendation in this new research paper is to take oral calcifediol (vitamin D3) as it is three to five times more powerful and has a greater rate of intestinal absorption.
